1886, May 12, Wednesday
Attended Ruri-decanal Chapter at Dr Wood’s Cropredy. I called for Rev E. J. Smith of Tadmarton and took him with me. We had a good deal of rain going and returning. It came down in torrents as I drove into Sibford.
The old folks’ tea was held in the Schoolroom under the superintendence of the Misses Dix, but there were not many present, owing to the weather. Bell and I went.
